I cleaned a floatex carpet for the first time yesterday. I was light brown, dirty and looked well beaten up. The customer complained it was shedding fibres. It is only 5 years old, and despite the fact it gets little traffic, looked very worn.
I cleaned it with Split-X. It cleaned up ok. I extracted lots of carpet fibres, and had to bale out my HWE by hand as it was blocked up with the stuff. After the (thorough) clean it still shed fibres.
I suggested to the customer that they went back to the manufactured to check the warrantee.
I though floatex was indestructable!

I looked at the backing - what more should I check for?

manufactured to check the warrantee stright out of a training corse manual lololololol funny they will tell your custom to get lost
the crap you learn on them corses which are designed for the use market dont work here in the u.k. and warrantees are not worth the paper there worte on why ? because theres nobody to enfore the law simple
